How to achieve knowledge sharing through the community of e-learning?

1. How to achieve knowledge sharing through the community of e-learning?

2. The online communities are today expanding riding upon the fine innovations driven by technology. The definitive feature of such vibrance is that the web has offered a catalysis buffer for all the activities of society and economy and hence we are finding multiple booms! E-learning is one such dimension through which millions of students are benefiting. 

3.  They can have real time querying and consultations with their mentors and can maintain their own pace of study and learning from the comfort of their place. Building upon these advantages for the students is the complementary concept of ‘knowledge sharing’ whereby the objective is to create more of the knowledge by allowing every member student to put in something useful for others.

4.  In this manner, the overall derivate is much more that what is being offered by the mentor alone. To synergize such a collaborative e-learning community is, however, a challenge in multiple ways!

5. What is knowledge sharing through e-learning community –

6. Setting up an e-learning platform is much of the tech concept where smart interfacing tools and mechanisms are utilized as the core functions. However, to develop the ‘one to many’ learning passages in this system is a very generic task? This means moving beyond the ‘one to one’ student to mentor relationship in the matrix and engaging all to be part of the active process where everyone would find something useful and would also offer the same. 

7. This develops the online collaborative e-learning community where all members find ‘more that they demand’! The more than demanded knowledge is the reason for the development of the ‘knowledge pool’ as a dynamic resource that is kept open all time and for all; hence securing knowledge sharing! This only represents the concept (or the objective) that needs to be attempted by the mentor of the knowledge group. The real task starts through the online training that he undertakes towards such fulfillment.

8. How to attempt knowledge sharing?

9. The mentor is tasked with the synergise of practical value and here takes center stage the ability of custom e-learning for every student who is a member of the knowledge sharing pool. Unless the mentor is able to stimulate every mind to deliver in what it is best, the pool will never substantiate. Remember that every student is different and each could be possessing different skills and knowledge. 

10. This knowledge needs to be tapped; so that the others who are deficient in the same could gain. Custom learning thus finds evolution here and through effective knowledge share mechanism in place, every student is learning different things to varying extents but the overall knowledge potential of the group is expanding multiple times!

11. Consider the example wherein a student with a score of just 3 learns 5 subsidiary concepts/facts and achieves a final score of 3+5=8! If every student is at 8 and total students are 100 then it means that knowledge value of the group emerges as 100X8=800. For ‘one to one’ mentor to student custom learning, it would have been mere 3X100=300.

12. Such jubilance may seem easy in the numeric depicted above but the mentor needs human skills & precision to stimulate the contribution from all members! This is the real task to be accomplished if the optimized value of knowledge sharing is to be developed from the community of e-learning!
